I've recently completed a design for a hand held gizmo for a customer who
wants 5000+ of these, with many more to follow. They are barfing at the cost
at the moment (my estimated UK manufacturing costs), so I'm looking at
having this made in the Far East, China or Eastern Europe.
Does anyone have any contacts for low cost high volume manufacturers
oversees that could possibly take this on? The gizzmo is a small handheld
device about the size of a cigarette packet with an LCD display, 16 key
keypad and some surface mounted electronics inside.
If you want to respond off list please remove ".nospam" from email address.
